HI....I HAVE AN '87 SHELBY Z CAR ALSO. NEVER DID MUCH TO IT FOR EXTRA HP,BUT IF YOU GO TO MOPAR.COM, LOOK UNDER FOUR CYLINDER COMPONENTS,AND YOU SHOULD SEE A PARTS LIST FOR THESE ENGINES LISTED AS " TURBO COMPUTERS". THERE WERE BIGGER TURBO KITS, SPECIAL INJECTORS,ETC. TO PUMP OUT 300HP + . IF YOUR LOOKIN FOR CHEAP GAINS,MAYBE A CAI, PERFORMANCE COMPUTER, CAT BACK EXHAUST. BUT THE OLD RULE OF GOIN' FAST IS THAT
IF YOU WANT IT TO GO , YOU GOTTA SPEND THE DOUGH!! GOOD LUCK!!

Best bang for the buck mod you will ever do on these cars is open up the exhaust. Get atleast a 2.5" Dont worry about backpressure, the turbo is more than the motor will ever need.
You will more than likely see the hp increase you are looking for with exhaust. Then look to upgraded computers. And when you are ready for that, contact cindy at fwdperformance.com she has the best cals for these cars.

I'll never buy another thing from FWDPerformance. Cindy is a liar. I bought my IROC R/T from her and I had to put almost as much money into fixing it as I did to buy it.

I am very sorry to hear that. But, there are two sides to every story. I have spent probably around 12-15k with her, never had a problem. Did you buy a 1000 IROC and expect it to run perfect? Cindy is as honest as they come.

By 1000, do you mean $1000? If so, no, I spent $6600.
